A COMMON MAN IS A SECOND CITIZEN

We have achieved a good position,
chants our so called leaders and politicians.
And our Moon landing is in offing,
development is in full swing.

In between their boasts and claims
I saw through my window pane
standing their was a couple dejected
pale hungry their clothes all wretched
they were in ultimate despair
lost their their child
due to lack of medical care!!!

Rockets Moon landings,
were not their aim
this is indeed
a big National shame,

Is this why we fought for freedom ?
A COMMON MAN IS A SECOND CITIZEN
